Blue Ribbon Foundation Assistance Dogs Program

Program partners

Our partnership with Assistance Dogs Australia

Victoria Police Blue Ribbon Foundation has chosen Assistance Dogs Australia (ADA) as its principal partner for the training and supply of high level, police assistance dogs. ADA is an industry leader in this field, with 26 years of experience, is internationally accredited with AAII, a registered NDIS provider and a registered charity with the ACNC.
The normal training time for each dog with ADA is two years at a cost of $40,000. To ensure the integrity and confidentiality of both expressions of interest and formal applications the highly qualified team at Assistance Dogs Australia will manage enquiries, applications and matching between dogs and their new owners.
